Reseña de álbum

Prince was shooting for the top of the charts with Graffiti Bridge, and he missed. The movie was a disaster, causing the soundtrack to sell very poorly. Despite its poor showing, Graffiti Bridge is not a bad album; in fact, it's often very good. Prince wrote all of the songs, but only performed a little over half the tracks, leaving the rest for The Time, Mavis Staples, and Tevin Campbell. With the exception of The Time's slamming "Release It" and Campbell's "Round and Round," the best songs are the ones Prince performed himself. The George Clinton collaboration "We Can Funk," the psycho-blues of "The Question of U," the sinewy single "Thieves in the Temple," and the pop/rock of "Can't Stop This Feeling I Got," "Tick, Tick, Bang," and "Elephants & Flowers" make Graffiti Bridge a thoroughly enjoyable listen.

Perfect album

Many Prince fans do not agree, but this is an awesome album. Other than Round and Round, which is simply OK, the album is GENIUS! That's why you have to buy the whole album to get it, because they want you to have this awesome album. Get it and be totally satisfied.

I've been looking for this album for a while on Itunes. This must be a pretty recent addition. It's a pretty good album. All the songs were written by Prince and the entire album could have been sung by Prince. But, on this one, he chose to give some of the songs to some of his friends. The highlights among them are The Time on the song "Shake" and Tevin Cambell's "Round and Round".
Of Prince's joints the highlights are, Joy of Repetition, Thieves in the Temple & Graffiti Bridge.
By the way, this was the soundtrack to his third movie. As with Purple Rain, the movie is supposed to be VERY losely based on his life. With the exception of the songs in the movie, it is really quite bad. Though the soundtrack really makes up for the low quality of the movie.

The Question of you and Joy in repetition makes this album worthy to be a Prince album.

Few artists have created a body of work as rich and varied as Prince.

Not only did he release a series of groundbreaking albums; he toured frequently, produced albums and wrote songs for many other artists, and recorded hundreds of songs that still lie unreleased in his vaults. With each album he released, Prince has shown remarkable stylistic...
